"Good but some areas for improvement"

We've been generally pleased with Outwood Academy Ormesby, but there have been a few issues with communication from teachers and some inconsistencies in the curriculum. The facilities are great, and the staff are always willing to listen. Perhaps with some tweaks, this school could be even better.
